Establishing Regis Network Security Policy

This project proposes to establish a security policy for the computer lab Local Area Network (LAN) at the Colorado Springs Campus (CSC) for the Network Lab Practicum (NLP) by completing a network analysis to determine requirements. Utilizing the current network configuration, a risk assessment will be performed to identify vulnerabilities and threats to the information system. Once the risk analysis is completed, a network security plan will be developed to protect system resources. The security policy will include, at a minimum, access policies, password management, firewall policy, policy on use of active code and the Internet, standards and interoperability policies, a VPN policy, and enforcement standards. The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) approach will be used as the project methodology. Key deliverables will include a configuration management baseline, security policy and procedures, wiring diagram, firewall, anti virus protection and lessons learned. The project will culminate with a presentation to the academic board. Class utilization of the LAN will determine the success of the project. In the final phase of the project, the LAN will be turned over to the CSC NLP for administration, classroom support and future project opportunities. Keywords: security policy, risk assessment, lessons learned, local area network, system development life cycle, password, firewall, antivirus, configuration management

WIRELESS LAN IN UTP CAMPUS AREA

In the world nowadays, more and more organizations and learning institute are deploying the Wireless Local Area Network or WLAN to be used together or to replace with the wired LAN. WLAN is wireless networks between computers within one building or a group of buildings. The frequently used protocol in WLAN is the Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11 standards. The objective of the project is to develop a conceptual design of a Wireless LAN for UTP campus area. The literature review and case study touch on what is WLAN and its pros such as mobility and the contras such as, the slow network speed and interference. The methodology or steps used to complete the project are project preliminary study, project requirements, project research and analysis, network design and development stage, and lastly the evaluation stage. Though WLAN has some of its downside, it is convenient because of mobility, lower cost to deploy and provide security to its user

Security-aware fair transmission scheme for 802.11 based cognitive IoT

Cognitive IoT is exponentially increased because of various real time and robust applications with sensor networks and big data analysis. Each IoT protocol of network layer can be RPL, COAP and so on based on IETF standards. But still collision problems and security-aware fair transmission on top of scalable IoT devices were not solved enough. In the open wireless LAN system based cognitive IoTs, IoT node that is continuously being stripped of its transmission opportunity will continue to accumulate packets to be sent in the butter and spoofing attacks will not allow the data transfer opportunities to be fair. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method to reduce the average wait time of all packets in the system by dynamically controlling the contention window (CW) in a wireless LAN based cognitive IoT environment where there are nodes that do not have fair transmission opportunities due to spoofing attacks. Through the performance evaluation, we have proved that the proposed technique improves up to 80% in terms of various performance evaluation than the basic WLAN 802.11 based IoT

E-Commerce Legislation and Materials in Canada: Lois sur le commerce électronique au Canada et documents connexes by Sunny Handa, Claude Marseille & Martin Sheehan (Markham, Ont.: LexisNexis Butterworths, 2005)

This hefty volume is a useful compendium of the basic source materials for the law of electronic commerce in Canada. It offers the text of all the general-purpose legislation that removes legal barriers to the use of electronic communications, for all jurisdictions in the country. It then takes a dozen related areas of law, from domain names to taxation, from competition law to consumer protection, from security to standards, and offers a quick overview and the key documents applicable to each. In each case the commentary is in English then in French, and where the texts are available in both lan- guages, they are presented in both, either together or in turn. The present volume is the second edition of the work

Deep Space Network information system architecture study

The purpose of this article is to describe an architecture for the Deep Space Network (DSN) information system in the years 2000-2010 and to provide guidelines for its evolution during the 1990s. The study scope is defined to be from the front-end areas at the antennas to the end users (spacecraft teams, principal investigators, archival storage systems, and non-NASA partners). The architectural vision provides guidance for major DSN implementation efforts during the next decade. A strong motivation for the study is an expected dramatic improvement in information-systems technologies, such as the following: computer processing, automation technology (including knowledge-based systems), networking and data transport, software and hardware engineering, and human-interface technology. The proposed Ground Information System has the following major features: unified architecture from the front-end area to the end user; open-systems standards to achieve interoperability; DSN production of level 0 data; delivery of level 0 data from the Deep Space Communications Complex, if desired; dedicated telemetry processors for each receiver; security against unauthorized access and errors; and highly automated monitor and control

Customer Focus Newsletter, May - June, 2011, Vol. 8, no. 3

A bi-monthly bulletin to keep the department/agency management teams of state government better informed. We hope to consolidate most of the service update messages we send throughout the month and keep you updated about the work of the Customer Councils. If yours is one of the many departments who participated in the second annual DAS customer satisfaction survey recently, we thank you for taking the time to give us this important feedback. We look forward to sharing survey results with you, and pledge to consider responses carefully as we work to determine benchmarks and set future priorities
